Switch for SFP+
I could never get LACP + tagged VLANs to work on SwOS.
Then again, it doesn't work reliably on RouterOS either, so I gave up. Spending more on hardware that is well supported is worth it versus my time and sanity.
I think Ubiquiti pretty much has the "cheap hardware that works well, but commercial support lacking" market cornered.
thanks,
